Jeremy Barris

Jeremy Barris is a Professor of Philosophy in the Department of Humanities at Marshall University, specializing in the intersections of metaphysics, epistemology, and rhetoric with a focus on truth, justice, and the nature of thinking and dialogue.

His research centers on philosophy of mind, metaphysics, and epistemology, with significant contributions to philosophy of humor, dreams, gender/sexuality, and pluralism. He bridges analytic and continental traditions through figures like Wittgenstein, Plato, and Derrida, exploring how different logics access truth through humor, dreams, and dialogue while examining undogmatic pluralism in politics and metaphysics.

Recent publications (2023-2024) analyze deep perception, humor's relationship to truth, and continental/analytic philosophy distinctions, continuing his lifelong investigation of being, emotional transformation, and meta-conceptual experiences. Earlier works examine pluralism in Plato, psychoanalytic epistemology, and Marxist-Freudian critiques of obviousness.
